Projective Architecture on Human Perception
Somol and Whiting’s position on dialectic to Doppler is
intrigues me. I understand their proposition of the Doppler Effect and parallax
– which to me essentially boils down to “it takes two to tango.” What I don’t
quite understand is their stance on human
perception, which intrinsically sparks from the relationships between our
(1) brain, (2) body and (3) environment. It seems to me that projective
architecture can differentiate itself from critical architecture in that it
doesn’t worship form (which I would agree with), but can still miss the mark in
terms of designing what it means to
occupy a space as a human (re: WW’s uncomfortable-looking IntraCenter).
I feel like the human perception is about the relationship of the person while "doing the tango" sort to speak. It means architecture will be perceived in a different way depending on the point of view of the person interacting with it.
